“I could see it from our backyard, but it’s a facade right now,” neighbour Samantha Keown said.
“You see the front (of the house) and the front looks fine, except the roof. (But) from the back it’s a husk. There’s nothing. It’s like an old western thing where it’s just the front frame and nothing back there.”
The two other homes suffered minor damage.
The fire took about one and a half hours to put out and the cause of the fire is still under investigation.
